Over at Ulsterman the conspiracy theorists are out in force in the comments and I have done my best to feed their paranoia. The best one I have come up with so far is:   What if the Drug War is a False Flag Operation?   Operation Valkyrie ring a bell?  

Governor Chris Christie of New Jersey says the Drug War is a failure. He wants to put first timers caught up in Prohibition into rehab for up to a year. Forced anything is not what I would call a conservative position. But it is a start. Especially for Christian Democrats (Republicans). And then from the…

Of course our Christian Democrats (Republicans) believe that Christianity should rule America thus giving fools like this an opening. How about no religion can rule America? It is safer that way. H/T Libertarian Republican

We have two authoritarian parties in America, Democrats and Christian Democrats (Republicans). That explains most of what you see in politics today. Libertarians used to be a force in American politics from 1776 (earlier actually) until about 1900. Around that time (and even more later) the Progressives split into two Parties giving us what we…

The vast majority of the Republican Party.

Ulsterman has a post up discussing Mark Steyn’s observation that “the lamps are going out”. One commenter asks: I am still scratching my head wondering why we permitted 20% of population to lord over us?. Here is why: When “Conservatives” get it their authoritarian streak shows and the voters decide to try the other authoritarians…

Indoor living has its drawbacks. The glass used in most windows filters out the blue end of the spectrum. That can lead to the blues. A new kind of coating for window glass corrects for the blue deficiency. …our biorhythms are not affected by the wavelengths that brighten a room the most, but rather by…

My time will come. Throw a party. And write a song. “Simon’s Wake” . and

I did a post on the new tobacco taxes. I mentioned in passing that schizophrenics smoke a LOT of tobacco. This measure then is a huge tax on schizophrenics. Pass on the link to this post: https://classicalvalues.com/2012/07/taxing-schizophrenics/ Let us fight the bastards any way we can. Start with information. Educate. Educate. Educate. And contact your…

Shopping for a gun or associated equipment? Don’t use Google. A major anti-gun group is applauding Google’s recent policy change to exclude firearms and other weapons from its shopping search results. The policy — part of the company transitioning its Shopping Center to a commercial site — places shopping results under its advertising policy, which…

I like smoking tobacco. Since I live on Social Security (yeah I know – and I’m working to get off it) it is an expensive habit that I can barely afford. I smoke about a pack and a half a week equivalent. That’s right – I roll my own. Well in its infinite voraciousness governments…

Commenter Neil and I were discussing the nature of our current problem and how it related to the problem of 1859. I pointed out that the problem back then was whether or not to keep slaves and our current problem is whether or not to be slaves. A whole different order of problem. Neil suggested…

Timothy Darymple is going off on one of his periodic screeds against hippies and their sponging off society to do their own thing. I don’t get why so many hate hippies. But OK. I’m fine with that. I suggest everyone do what I did after I got tired of hippie. Join an outlaw MC gang.…

A man wants to chop off my head. In the spirit of compromise I allow as to how it might be OK if he slit my throat as it allows me to keep my head attached to my body. How is that for the spirit of compromise? Or would it just be better if I…

The central problem is this. There are many who want to be slaves. “Tell us what do do.” There are many fewer who want to be masters. “We will tell you what to do.” The fewest are those who wish to be neither masters nor slaves. “Do your own thing.” America was set up to…

A Green Jobs Program spent $38.6 billion to create about 3,600 jobs. That is $10 million per job. I figure I could take that $10 million and create two jobs for $5 million and pocket the difference. That would have doubled the efficiency of the program. And I could become a 1%er. Of course a…

A friend over at another blog (you can find it if you know my haunts) asks a very serious question in a discussion about what to do about “the bankers”. How can they be reined in? This has been a rather dramatic change in your tone, has something happened to you in the last six…

Alex Jones has a secret conspiracy for you. Body bags and casket liners. It gets better and wouldn’t you know it the Jews are behind it. British news channel ITV has whitewashed the Olympics security scandal by failing to mention the explosive revelations of ‘Lee Hazledean’, an undercover journalist who infiltrated G4S, the world’s largest…

If you start in ordering humans about they will do the opposite (the spirit of rebellion) otherwise they will do as they damn well please.
